I'm not there (would like to be) but am happy to provide instant commentary. You may read my predictions here.

There is this year the Calvinist controversy in full bloom. Moderates predicted this a couple of decades ago while on their way out the SBC door. The 2nd VP position is perceived as a contest between the Calvinists and Traditionalists.

The most significant news is that the SBC will elect a black president tomorrow but the buzz is for the calvinist/traditionalist stuff.

Is anyone going to live blog it? I haven't heard anyone mention it being live blogged of the SBC blogs I follow.

I knew there was a live stream, but that won't help while I'm at work. I'd like to read/skim a rundown of the notable events.

Luter's election is a distracting anomaly. Consult Chandler Davidson of Rice about the race history of SBC Takeover artist Paul Pressler. Find Ellen Rosenberg or progressive N.C Baptist to tell you about Jesse Helms role in the fundamentalist takeover of the SBC. Talk to Randall Balmer at Dartmouth.Last week the Majority denomination in Bama, SBC, in collusion with the Tea Party had the heads of Bama Public Television over David Barton's bogus religious history. And there is no Bama immigration bill without the state's Southern Baptists.Investigate what Fundy leader Nelson Price is doing to Shorter College in Rome Georgia.Have Giberson and Stephens of The Anointed have a conversation with Richard Land and Bryant Wright, SBC outgoing Prez. Chat on faith and Science and the fundamentalist parallel universe.Long trek to go before SBC is out of the darkness. This latest distraction is a feint.
